His Dirty Bargain (Dirty Billionaires 3)

« Prev  Chapter  Next »



I look up to see Chloe closing the door to my home office. It isn’t often she comes into my office during the day and when she does it always ends with us making love. I perk up until she tosses a fat ass document on my desk. It’s upside down, I have to tilt my head to read it. Ah, fuck.

“You didn’t think I would forget, did you? In two weeks it’s our ten-year anniversary. The time has come to pay the piper, I’m about to make your wallet weep.”

Leaning back in my chair I can’t keep the smile off my face. She straddles me, god I love this woman. After ten years and five children, she is still sexy and beautiful to me. I’ll admit now, I kind of thought the love I felt when I first met her would wane, diminish just a bit but it hasn’t. If anything our love has grown stronger, deepened. Every day I wake up thankful for my angel. “My wallet is going to weep, huh? There’s only sixty bucks in it. It won’t take much.”

“Okay, then your bank account.” Chloe nips at my ear.

“You mean the account that has had your name on it too since the week after we got married?”

A moan slides out of her as she grinds on me. “I love how you don’t need Viagra yet.” I chuckle as I slide my hands down to cup her ass. “A Sabatini does not need Viagra when his woman is as beautiful and sexy as you are. What are you doing with that damn prenup? I thought I destroyed all the copies that are out there.”

“Nope, I kept one tucked away with Russell. Now that he and Steve and their six kids are moving to the wilds of Kenosha, Wisconsin he thought I should have it back.”

She stresses six kids way too much. I thought we had settled this. “My love, if you get pregnant again, you’re putting your health at risk, your life at risk, my damn life and it’s just not happening. The vasectomy is the best thing for all of us. Five is pretty damn close, getting them to bed last night it felt like we had six. Three beautiful girls, two boys, we’re good. I think it’s a perfect ratio.”

Her sigh heats the skin of my neck. “Fine, okay, I said okay already. Renegotiating the terms of the prenup is the subject, not me not getting my six kids.”

I pull back to look down at her. “What renegotiating? Why?”

“Because it’s been ten years. The prenup states in ten years we reevaluate if we want to stay married or not. And if we do stay married, then the terms of the prenup can be changed.”

“Yeah, that’s not happening. You aren’t going anywhere. I only put that in there so you wouldn’t know just how completely and utterly you owned me.”

Her smile goes wide, she glows as she kisses my cheek. “Whatever, you signed it. So now I want what I’m due.”

Curiosity keeps me from laughing. “And what are you due?”

“Just seven million dollars.”

“Oh, just seven million dollars. What will you be doing with this seven million dollars?” It’s a pittance, I’d hand her twice that any day of the week without flinching but she’s making a meal of this so I’m curious what it is she really wants.

“Buying land in Sicily so we can all build houses on it. It makes sense. We all love going there, it’s crazy to rent a house or even a hotel when we go.”

I laugh. “I’m not giving you seven million dollars.”

Her eyes go wide. “Why not? This is for all of us.”

“Because the guys already went in on an island off Sicily. When we go on vacation to celebrate our anniversary, we’ll spend our time laying out the house for the build and picking out finishes. It was Cesare’s idea, he was getting tired of staying in hotels when he and Alicia went.” Over the last four years, now that our kids are old enough to leave for longer than a few days we’ve gone to Italy, going back again and again to Sicily.

Chloe smacks my chest. “How could you not tell me sooner? Bethany, Alicia, Gina, Christina, and I have all been wracking our brains trying to figure out how to make it happen for weeks.”

“A surprise means surprise. I think Cesare got the idea from Alicia, maybe he heard her talking to one of you about it.”

“I’m mad at you but it’s so sweet. An entire island, being married to a billionaire has its benefits, I guess. Ooh, can we spend Christmas there? I feel a little bad we usually go when it’s freezing cold and we leave the kids.”

“At least you feel bad about it. Dante teases Mass, Gia, and Lucia with selfies when he and Bethany go.”

Laughing, Chloe nods. “I’m a bad person for laughing. I think it was awesome though the way you helped the kids get him back by filling his home office with thousands of peeps. He swears he can still smell them in his office.”

“Of course he can still smell them. There are at least a dozen I’ve hidden in there he’ll never find.”

“Just wait, he’s going to try to get you back.”

“He already has. He sent an enormous donation to a truly bizarre charity in my name and they haven’t stopped emailing me and sending me letters since.”

“You two.” Shaking her head, she runs a hand down my face. “It’s very sweet of you guys to buy the island. I think this calls for a special thank you.”

“I was going to say your happiness is enough but if you want, it would be bad manners not to accept.”
